Will the fax modem allow phone calls when connected for fax?

yes but it will interrupt the fax transmission. I'm not sure how you are using the modem. It connects to the computer and then the wall. The fax and/or phone are connected via a splitter from the wall jack. But regardless it will disconnect when a fax or a call comes in.

Yes, I use the modem with Windows Fax and Scan and it can be configured to only answer as a fax when you tell it to. When the computer is on and the phone rings a little box appears on the computer screen asking if you want to answer as a fax.

Yes it will work sometimes. I prefer the Hiro voice/fax modem, works every time with Call-wave pro.

sorry - can't answer this question. I only used the modem for internet connection - not faxes.

There is nothing in the documentation that indicates this possibility. It does say that the software that drives the fax modem system is computer based.

No, the magic jack only has to be hooked up to the modem. If the modem is functioning properly, you can make calls.

No, the fax works like an incoming call. It is a very good machine that covers all bases. We are the owners of a small business and this is perfect for us!

In my home office I have two phone lines. One phone line is dedicated to DSL, which requires filters. The filter may cause a conflict with sending and receiving information over the fax machine. My fax is connected to the phone line without the DSL. I recommend calling your DSL service provider. Technology changes so quickly that they may have a solution.

For Mac use, the Fax capability does not require any additional software files. The modem capability does require a modem script. It come with a CD with the required modem script for Mac OS 10.4.3 and greater. If you lose the CD, you can download the modem script here: http://www.usr.com/support/5637/5637-files/USRobotics56KUSBModem.dmg

I use this as an external fax modem for the Windows fax software on a Dell desktop running Windows 7. It works just fine for a small office that sends/receives faxes about 5x a week. I have a dedicated fax line, so I can't speak to having one telephone line/AT&T; high speed internet. I would assume as long as the modem gets a dial tone from the phone line, it will work.

It supports the modem-on-hold feature. This will pause your internet connection for an incoming call or fax.

Hi Stella, Short answer is "Yes". You will need to purchase a phone jack "Y" connector and enough phone wire to get to your fax machine from the base. The closer the better! Unplug the phone wire going to the Panasonic Base. Plug that phone wire into one of the "Y" inputs. Plug the "Y" connector back into the Panasonic Base. Use the purchased phone wire to come from the other "Y" input into your fax machine and you're good to go. No phone calls while you're using the fax.Steve

It would depend. If you are asking if you can connect to a FAX line, yes they are just telephone lines typically. If you want both the FAX and the Base connected, I would get a splitter that turns one jack into two telephone jacks, and plug the FAX into one side and the phone into the other. Some research needs to be done to see how to set the FAX and phone to share the line. Many FAX machines or phones can be set to determine what type of call is incoming.

No it can not fax. The Bluetooth module is an add on. I've never used it since the wireless works fine.

No, it won't work w/ DSL. It is an analogue modem works on traditional phone line. For Internet Phone, pls consult with your service provider. The modem is tested w/ Google Voice w/ no problem to send and receive faxes. Wireless Fax Machine is not been tested and why does it need to use a modem if it already has a modem built-in since it is a fax machine. Pls provide more information for the application and how you plan to use it with a Wireless Fax Machine.

This model does not. I believe you have to go with the DCP8190DN for faxing capability.

yes or you can put setting on fax to tel/fax and you can recive faxes and your personal calls.
